Also when you turn your sun visor down vertical (straight down for those how don't know) from the bottom of that to the light bar is an inch. According to CHP as long as it dose not impede your view its not illegal. And with California having the hardest veh. codes I don't think it will be an issue in other states. I hope this answers your question
No, actually that doesn't answer my question. How much of the windshield is covered?

3" inch's from weather strip and 2.25" above mount for rear view mirror and 1.650" at corners of window. So come down 3" from weather strip or beauty trim and draw a line all the way across and you have how much is covered. so 54"x1.650"x3" is the total amount being blocked. Less than your average window tint strip that 90% of Americans have done.

Maybe it's just me but... I can't see any of the pictures.

IMO, again, is that with the product being be so light specific you aren't going to sell many of these. Maybe I'm wrong.

Your average XJ owner owns a Cherokee because they're inexpensive. Telling them that they have to spend 125 bucks on your mount and another 700 bucks on the 1 light that fits it is out of the question.

No, if your mount fit a BUNCH of different lights, including the less expensive lights, I can see it working.

Either way.

Either way.
The kit was built to work with inexpensive 50" LED light bars to high end ones. Pics are large so they take a minute to load. Can't make every one happy but you can find a cheap china light bar for around $300.00 i must warn you they are cheap and do have issues. Tossed a few of those away yes XJ are cheap and cheap to build but people that wheel hard and do long trail runs spend the money. Even at the price if it were for example a JK you could double that price. Thats why people build XJ's quality parts are far more cheaper and for a 1/4 of what is spent on Building a JK will build you a mean XJ. Just sayin
